A powerful and wholly original American saga. -San Francisco ChronicleBich Minh Nguyens previous books-the acclaimed memoir Stealing Buddhas Dinner and the American Book Award-winning novel Short Girls-established her talents as a writer of keen cultural observation. In Pioneer Girl, Nguyen entwines the Asian American experience with the escapist pleasures of literature, in a dazzling mystery about the origins of Laura Ingalls Wilders classic Little House on the Prairie.Lee Lien has long dodged her Vietnamese familys rigid expectations by immersing herself in books. But now, jobless with a PhD in literature, she is back at home, working in her familys restaurant under her mothers hypercritical gaze-until an heirloom from their past sends Lee on a search for clues that may lead back to Wilder herself, transforming strangers lives as well as her own.
